Cigar Review
Habanos S.A. proudly presented the most eagerly-awaited cigar: The Partagas Serie P No. 2. The Serie P No. 2 cigars are made by hand of leaves carefully selected from the best tobacco plantations in the Vuelta Abajo area. They come in the 52-gauge pyramid (or torpedo) size, that is 6 inches (156 millimeters) long. Their blend -created by cigar experts- bears the seal of this brand and the distinctive taste of its world-famous Series line, whose standard-bearer is the Partagás Series D No. 4. The Pirámide Vitola, also known as Torpedo, is one of the most sough after and highly appreciated cigar sizes among the enthusiasts in the art of smoking.

PARTAGAS CIGARS

Year of Foundation: 1845

Tobacco Country: Cuba

Tobacco Procedence: Vuelta Abajo (Pinar del Rio)

Cigar Factory: Partagas

The Partagas cigar brand is named for it's founder, Don Jaime Partagas, who began manufacturing Cuban cigars in 1827, but put his own name on his line of cigars in 1845. After his death, the Partagas brand passed to Ramon Cifuentes in 1889 and was owned by Cifuentes y Cia. prior to nationalization, earning a mention by name in English novelist Evelyn Waugh's 1945 work, Brideshead Revisited. Partagas cigars also won gold medals in at least three international cigar expositions between 1867 and 1884. There is no doubt about the strong, intense flavour of this Cuban cigar line and it is still produced in the Partagas cigar factory in La Habana, Cuba, renamed Fernando Perez after nationalization.

The Partagas cigar range is immense and it would be hard for a smoker not to find a Partagas cigar which fits his or her interest in cigar size or cigar shape. Buyer beware: the 8-9-8 selections vary greatly in size and strength; identification is made by whether the cigar box is varnished or not. Click here for more Partagás cigar history!
